I've looked around the website for some documentation on the auto-waypoint feature, but am still a little confused and haven't been able to get it working. Whenever I draw a polygon and select "Auto WP" > "Survey (Grid)", the generated waypoints always appear on the border of the polygon, and not inside it like the documentation photos: http://wiki.ardupilot-mega.googlecode.com/git/images/grid.jpg. I've tried modifying some of the selections on the "Grid Options" tab like "OverShoot", "Overlap", and "Sidelap", but am not exactly sure what they do, and haven't been able to get generated waypoints to appear on the interior.

Sure, here's an example of what I'm seeing: http://imgur.com/uta5HQl. Note that the waypoints only appear on the border of the polygon, and not inside it. This is with Mission Planner 1.2.92, if that makes any difference.
